Pep Segura gave the proposal to Santos chief José Carlos Peres

Pep Segura returned from Brazil where he had been this week to negotiate the signing of Rodrygo, Santos's young star.

The deal, reported by SPORT, is underway, although there will be various chapters to come before a deal is reached. Barcelona have accelerated things and Segura's visit was proof of that.

As we explained, Barcelona made an offer of 30 million euros, something confirmed by the Brazilian media, explaining the meeting between Barca exec Segura and Santos president Jose Carlos Peres. 

Per UOL Esporte, Segura gave the proposal to the Brazilian chief but his first reaction was not positive.

Peres already said this week that he will not negotiate for Rodrygo until all the problems still open from Neymar's signing from Santos had been cleared up.
